Peach Upside-Down Cake
The family behind Illinois' Rendleman Orchards has amassed some great peach recipes in more than a century of growing peaches. This cake is no exception. Peach slices and brown sugar form a moist base for the tender, square cake—and when flipped over, that base becomes the topping. We like the cake warm with ice cream.

Peach Pancakes and Chai Syrup
Pureed canned peaches and whipping cream make a rich, flavorful pancake. Top with maple syrup instead of the chai syrup if you prefer. Add chopped peaches for even more fruit flavor.
If your peaches are ripe but you aren't quite ready to eat or cook with them just yet, Masumoto recommends placing them in the refrigerator, which will slow the ripening process down and allow you to extend their shelf life by several days.
So, should you rinse your canned fruit? Absolutely.It will help lower the sugar content more than not rinsing at all. But ultimately, if you are watching your sugar intake, the better option is to opt for fruit packed in light syrup, just juice or water, labeled with no added sugar, or fresh and frozen varieties.
According to the USDA's Dietary Guidelines, adults should eat at least 2 servings of fruit each day. And canned fruit can absolutely be just as healthy (if not more) than its fresh counterpart.

Peaches are low-calorie fruits. A peach weighs about 50 grams and contains only 25 calories. You can eat 2 to 3 peaches a day, and eating peaches will not make you fat. The nutritional value of peaches is very high, and its protein content is twice as high as that of apples and grapes.

Ripe peaches are best when eaten right away, but if you have more than you can eat in a single sitting, stash them in the refrigerator for up to a couple days. The cool temperature slows down ripening and prevents the peaches from quickly spoiling.
However, if you'd rather wait and enjoy your ripe peach at a later date, you do need to refrigerate your peaches to slow down the ripening process. Place your peach in your produce drawer or a loosely tied plastic bag to place in your fridge.
Simply put them on your counter at room temperature until they reach your desired ripeness. For faster ripening, place peaches in a brown paper bag on the kitchen counter. Once your peaches have reached ripeness, then and only then should you place them in the refrigerator.
